    CLAIRE! My husband ALSO never got righty tighty, so I came up with and taught him "clock to lock" - turning it clockwise tightens or "locks" it in place. Clock to lock, counter to enter.

    • @AmandaAbbott
      @AmandaAbbott Před 4 lety +10

      @@RosesAndIvy It's not *quite* as useful as "clock to lock" is, but I know that for me, I remember "righty tighty" as the "main" clue, and then "lefty loosey" is a minorly helpful addition. Knowing one lets you infer the other, so I wasn't *as* concerned with the second half being as useful on its own.
      You "enter" a jar though by opening it, so it makes a little bit of sense in that regard. It's also a nice opposite to "lock" that isn't *just* unlock. You lock a house when you leave, you enter it when you return.
      Hope that helps! My husband and I *usually* just say "clock to lock" rather than the longer "clock to lock, counter to enter" because that works for us. Just like "righty tighty" works for me. So I made the longer version because some people really like the full "righty tighty, lefty loosey" to help them remember, so I thought some form of "clock to lock, counter to enter" might help somebody, and I wasn't sure if my husband would like the full phrase or the shorter version.

No fruits, dairy or other vegetables. It works very well too! He was monitored medically while doing it for a year and had no issues and lost hundreds of pounds.

    The way she waxed poetic about the world’s love of tater tots at the beginning made me want them so bad I added them to the grocery list

    Claire: It's brilliant
    Delany: Brilliant is subjective in this situation
    Claire: But you agree
    Delany: *premonition of the apocalypse unfolding if he disagrees* _Yes_

      "But you agree": a command, not a question

    Claire: "I feel like this is the perfect serving size."
    Delaney: *goes in for a second spoonful*

      Well, Delany is more than a head taller than Claire.

      Honestly, I'm probably about Claire's height and I would have gone for seconds 😝

    15:31 when Brad asked for new tools and Claire looked up and chuckled, that's cause she knew she destroyed most of them :D

    How does Brad feel, knowing his "partner in crime" spot in Gourmet Makes was taken by his arch nemesis, Delaney?

      I'm thinking Brad is relieved that Delaney is now the one who has to lie to Claire and tell her everything is perfect. :)
